NEW YORK (AP) — The fatal stabbing of a gay man after a confrontation between a group of friends who were dancing to a Beyoncé song and a group of young men who apparently took offense has outraged New York City’s LGBTQ community and spurred Beyoncé herself to post a tribute. No arrests have been made in Saturday’s stabbing of O’Shae Sibley at a Brooklyn gas station. Police have released little information. A friend of Sibley’s who was there said he died “because he stood up for his friends.” A witness says the young men harassed Sibley’s group because their behavior offended them.
